Old B&W sets as "decor"

[Carmine]

I made this photo for a long-distance friend who wanted to see a picture of my "50s" bedroom. Since it shows my eyeball Zenith set in it's normal enviroment, (along with an old Capehart clock radio) I thought I'd show it here.

The set is hooked-up to a cheapo VCR which hides next to the far side of the bed, on a small shoe shelf, where it cannot be seen. However, if I aim the remote at the Zenith's screen, it will bounce back and hit the VCR. The Zenith logs about two hours use per week, and has never given any trouble.

This picture was taken in 2000, and I've since ditched the ugly 80s phone for something more period correct, along with the previous owners black miniblinds.

FWIW, the house itself was built in 1927.
